1. SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
• Before installation or use, be sure to carefully read all the instructions in this section for correct and safe
operation.
• Make sure to observe the instructions in this manual as the conventions of safety symbols and messages
regarded as very important precautions are included.
• We also recommend you keep this instruction manual handy for future reference.
Safety Symbol and Message Conventions
Safety symbols and messages described below are used in this manual to prevent bodily injury and property
damage which could result from mishandling. Before operating your product, read this manual first and
understand the safety symbols and messages so you are thoroughly aware of the potential safety hazards.
Do not leave the unit upside-down where it could be exposed to the
rain or elements. Water in the unit may cause shorts that could result
in fire or electrical shock.
WARNING
Indicates a potentially hazardous situation which, if mishandled, could
result in death or serious personal injury. WARNING
• Use the unit only with the voltage specified on the unit. Using a voltage higher than that which is specified
may result in fire or electric shock.
• Use screws that are appropriate for the ceiling's or wall's structure and composition. Failure to do so may
cause the unit to fall, resulting in material damage and possible personal injury.
• Ensure that all screws and fixing mechanism are securely tightened. If they are not tightened or firmly
secured after installation, the unit could fall down, possibly resulting in personal injury.
• Install the unit only in a location that can structurally support the weight of the unit and the mounting bracket.
Doing otherwise may result in the unit falling down and causing personal injury and/or property damage.
• Avoid installing the unit in locations exposed to sea breeze or corrosive gas. The unit or its mounts may be
subject to corrosion, that might cause it to fall or result in other accidents.
• To prevent a fire or electric shock, never open nor remove the unit case as there are high voltage
components inside the unit. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel.
• If any of the following irregularities occurs, immediately switch off the power, and inform the shop from where
the unit was purchased. Further using the unit may result in fire or electric shock.
· If you detect smoke or a strange smell coming from the unit.
· If water or any metallic object gets into the unit
· If the unit falls, or the unit case breaks
· If the power supply cord is damaged (exposure of the core, disconnection, etc.)
· If it is malfunctioning (no image appears.)
• Do not mount the unit in locations exposed to constant vibration. The mounting screws and/or bolts may be
loosened by excessive vibration, potentially causing the unit to fall, which could result in personal injury.
• To prevent lightning strikes, install the unit at least five meters away from a lightning rod, and yet within the
protective range (angle of 45°) of the lightning conductor. Lightning strikes may cause a fire, electric shock
or personal injury.
• Do not insert nor drop metallic objects or flammable materials in the ventilation slots of the unit's cover, as
this may result in fire or electric shock.
